லண்டன் வாகன விபத்தில் தமிழ் இளைஞன் உயிரிழப்பு

 

லண்டனில் நேற்று முன்தினம் வியாழக்கிழமை இடம்பெற்ற வாகன விபத்தில் இலங்கைத் தமிழ் இளைஞரொருவர் உயிரிழந்துள்ளார்.
லண்டன் லிச்கேட் பகுதியில் எரிபொருள் நிரப்பு நிலையமொன்றில் காசாளராக பணியாற்றி வந்த ஸ்ரீஸ்கந்தராஜா ரவிசங்கர் (28 வயது) என்பவரே உயிரிழந்தவராவார்.

தனது கடமையை முடித்துக் கொண்டு இவர் சென்ற வாகனம் திடீரெனத் தீப்பற்றி எரிந்த போதே அந்த வாகனத்துக்குள் சிக்கி இந்த இளைஞன் உயிரிழந்ததாகத் தெரிவிக்கப்படுகிறது.

இந்த வாகனம் திடீரெனத் தீப்பற்றி எரிந்ததற்கான காரணம் இதுவரை கண்டறியப்படாத அதேநேரம் இந்த விபத்துக் குறித்து சந்தேகம் நிலவுவதாகவும் தெரிவிக்கப்படுகிறது.

இது தொடர்பாக லண்டன் பொலிஸார் தீவிர விசாரணைகளை மேற்கொண்டு வருகின்றனர்.

இலங்கைத் தமிழரான இந்த இளைஞன் பிரிட்டனில் அரசியல் தஞ்சம் கோரியிருந்தவரென்பதும் குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது.

Whitstable blaze car death still remains a mystery

lon

Ravishankar Sriskantharajah

MYSTERY still surrounds the death of a motorist whose car burst into flames at Whitstable.

Ravishankar Sriskantharajah, a Sri Lankan tamil asylum seeker had only lived in the area for 12 days after starting a job as trainee cashier at Shell's Lychgate petrol station on the A299 Thanet Way.
His remains were found in a black Volkswagen Polo at Estuary View Business Park on Thursday, November 27.

Firefighters arrived at 2.15am after a security guard reported the vehicle alight.

Born in Jaffna, Sri Lanka, Mr Sriskantharajah would have celebrated his 29th birthday on New Year's Eve.He had just moved in with work colleagues above Patel's off-licence in Canterbury Road, Faversham.
Mr Sriskantharajah's uncle Victor Sivagunam, 62, is the chief executive of the Tamil Community Housing Association in London and has been dealing with the tragic death of his nephew.

He said: "The last time I saw Ravishankar was on November 19 and he seemed happy. He had been living in Leicester, had a girlfriend and was moving around trying to look for full-time employment.
"Ravishankar had been offered housing and support as an asylum seeker but he was always independent wanted to pay his own way and make a good living."

After hearing of his nephew's death Mr Sivagunam visited the site to place flowers in his memory.

He said: "I cannot believe suicide is a possible cause so whether it was a terrible accident or foul play, God only knows."
Why Mr Sriskantharajah was at the Estuary View Business Park in his car at 2am in the morning remains unclear.

Police have told Mr Sivagunam witnesses described seeing his nephew's car "zigzagging" down the coastbound A299 minutes before it entered the car park and caught fire.

"Maybe he was struggling with a passenger," Mr Sivagunam said.
"Police say they are still investigating but I just want his body released so we can give him a decent burial."

Velupillai Prabhakaran

The rest of the world might never understand the violence Velupillai Prabhakaran stood for, but its imprint on Sri Lanka is wide and deep. For 26 years, the elusive leader of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) had waged war with the government to win an independent homeland, or eelam, for the island's Tamil minority. The struggle claimed more than 70,000 lives--including, on May 18, Prabhakaran's. The government says he was killed, along with 17 of his trusted lieutenants, while fleeing an army ambush.

Prabhakaran, 54, was born to a middle-class family on the Jaffna Peninsula. Incensed by discrimination against Tamils and radicalized by a militant grade-school teacher, Prabhakaran founded the LTTE in 1976, a year after a group he headed claimed responsibility for killing Jaffna's mayor. By 1983 the guerrilla movement--which pioneered suicide bombings and the recruitment of child soldiers--escalated the fighting into a civil war.

At the height of his power earlier this decade, Prabhakaran led a de facto government that controlled vast swaths of territory and boasted its own systems of taxes, roads and courts. As the army closed in, he allegedly used thousands of Tamil civilians as human shields. By the final days, just 250 LTTE members remained. They died too, along with the dream of eelam.
